52 LovePoem This is a poem about love; but so soft, you can hear your shoes crinkle. I took a spoon and measured out the coffee of love. I added the cream of love and the sugar of love. I stirred and all was well, and I drank. And there came to me a wondrous vision: the coffee growers of the world forgathered , and love was the unannounced guest. And there I spilled the beans and declared my love. I strode confidently to the bridge that unites two worlds. I drank a demitasse, and reveled in cappuccino. And I was saved. 01.Poems.1-64_Fried.indd52 11/28/0512:33:20PM ...
